A tooltip is used to display text when the mouse hovers over the item. For example, you can add ToolTip to each menu item page to provide more information to the user about the item or command.
The Radial menu items and command items have RadialMenuItem.ToolTip and RadialMenuCommandItem.ToolTip properties for you to use to create a user-friendly application. For more information on adding a tooltip, see Tutorial. You can specify the position of the ToolTip through TooltipPlacement property of the C1RadialMenu whose value is set through the TooltipPlacementMode enumeration. The following table describes the available options for the TooltipPlacementMode enumeration.
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Default | Tooltip appears to the right of the RadialMenu. |
| Absolute | Tooltip appears at a position relative to the upper-left corner of the screen with an offset specified by the property values, HorizontalOffset and VerticalOffset. |
| Center | Tooltip appears at the center of the placement target element. |
| Custom | Tooltip appears at a position defined by CustomTooltipDisplaying delegate property. |
| Mouse | Tooltip appears at a position relative to the tip of the mouse cursor with an offset specified by the property values, HorizontalOffset and VerticalOffset. |
| Relative | Tooltip appears at a position relative to the upper-left corner of the placement target with an offset specified by the property values, HorizontalOffset and VerticalOffset. |
